The lady was inspired to come out and we got our Churros!

Week #88
5/25/15

Hey Everyone!!

So this week went pretty well and there were some cool things that
happened!

So on Tuesday we went down to Lambayeque to have our district meeting as
usual and all went well but after the meeting we did an interchange for a day!
So i stayed in Lambayeque and went with an Elder named Elder Kenison! Hes from
Lehi Utah and hes got like 9 months in the mission and hes really cool! Tuesday
after noon we went out proselyting in his area and my companion went with Elder
Watkins to Morrope for a day. We had a pretty good day i guess! We went out with
a member named Junior and were able to have a couple of lessons! At night we
went to visit this one house and there were soooooo many mosquitos!!! Everytime
you swung your hand at them you could hit like two of them! If you stood still
for more than 2 second there would be like 4 of them that would bite you! It was
crazy!? So we kind of just left that area so as to not get eaten by mosquitos!
At night we ate Pollo a la Brasa too! Yummy!

The next day our companions came down at like 8:30ish and we talked a
little bit about how it went and then Elder Kasteler and I headed back up to
Morrope! To be honest Wednesday and Thursday were super hard and long days!? We
hardly got into any houses and we werent able to do many contacts! It seemed
like nobody wanted to let us into their houses! Its getting extremely hard in
Morrope to do contacts now because we have literally almost knocked every single
door in Morrope twice! We have been able to find some cool new people but not
very many for how many contacts we have done and the people we have found arent
really progressing at all yet.. The cool thing about Wednesday and Thursday is
that even though we didnt have very many lessons we had quality lessons with
some new people! One new family we found who are really cool is Raquel and
Hernesto! They had some really good questions and were hoping that this week
they can come to church! Were still churggin along even though its getting
harder and harder every week to meet out goals!

On Saturday was my companions birthday so as a birthday present we went out
contacting all morning!!;) Happy Birthday Elder Kasteler!! Haha! We dont really
get breaks as missionaries but its alright it feels goood to work hard! We ended
up having a decent day and some thing went our way! Normally the Churro cart
doesnt come out on Saturday but im sure that since it was Elder Kasteler
birthday the lady was inspired to come out and we got our Churros! When the day
came to an end we went and bought Pollo a la Brasa and had a mini little party
if you could even call it that in our room! It was a missionary birthday but hey
it ended up being a good day!!

Sunday was our district conference which is basically a stake conference
but since were not a stake its called a district conference.. Its was pretty goo
but it was way hot in the church builiding and wearing our suits didnt help
much.. President Williams was supposed to come to the conference but he had
something else he needed to do which was a bummer but its alright! Sunday
afternoon we were able to go out with some members which was cool! That was the
first time inthe whole week we went out with member and we were actually pretty
successful which was a nice end to the week!

Today we went down to Lambayeque and went to this super old house that you
can tour that was built in 1787!? We went down there with Elder Bowyer to hang
out with him since its his last P-Day before he goes home!? We ate lunch
afterward and all in all it was really pretty cool!

All in all it was a pretty good week! This week is the last week of the
change and so on Monday well know who has changes!? Thats all for now! I know
that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the perfect tool to overcome our challenges
and that you can find an answer to ANY question in the scriptures! Love you
all!!

Love,

Elder Jarman
